I have employed additional materials from the archives of the University of Toronto and the American Geographical Society that considerably round out the story of the origins of the department, but other avenues remain to be pursued. Mackintosh and his encouragement of geography at Queen's University, which eventually established a strong department in the 1960s, would certainly make an interesting article. 2 A. John Watson ‘s recent dissertation (’Marginal man: Harold Innis‘ communications works in context’ PH D thesis, University of Toronto 1981 (shows the importance of C.S. Duncan in Innis‘s intellectual formation. As Watson has written, ’It was Duncan who first stressed the primacy of geography‘ (p. 240), and ’In a sense The Fur Trade in Canada is a superior example of the type of commodity analysis approach taught by Duncan' (p. 241). 3 R.

Newbigin, Canada: The Great River, the Lands and the Men ( New York : Harcourt, Brace and Company 1927). Newbigin‘sbook is a geographical history of New France (Quebec) to about 1760, with a chapter on Acadia and New England and a brief epilogue on Canada ’between 1763 and the present day.‘ The emphasis is clearly on the St Lawrence, the ’great river,' and its borderlands. 6 R.W.
